Question about pregnancy in the very beginning....might be TMI.

Ok, so my stomach has been hurting like the VERY beginning of cramps when AF comes to visit. Its off and on and comes and goes throughout the day but nothing that hinders me or makes me worried. hubby and i are ttc....my AF started march 31st and ended completely on April 4th. Standard charting says I should ovulate in 6 days or so (on April 14th) but I know some women ovulate all different times on different cycles. With all my rambling, what I am trying to ask is if the slight cramping (both in front in the center below my belly button, and sometimes in my back like a lower back ache) might be a sign of the beginning of pregnancy? Has anyone felt this way just a week or so after concieving ? I am hoping its not just wishful thinking. LMAO. ... . I usually never feel crampy in between my monthly's though so im keeping my fingers crossed!

I've been having slight stomach pains...I can't even really call it cramping....it's more of a dull ache on and off for about 2 weeks now and tomorrow I'll be 5 weeks pregnant, so I guess it's possible that you could be pregnant. If it's too early to pee on a stick lol, you could get a blood test. I was told by a nurse that blood work can tell pretty much from conception.

well, the only thing I can say is that slight cramping tends to indicate ovulation. Before I found out I was pregnant I remember feeling cramping and knowing that I was pregnant because I was NEVER late. hehe.

Before I found out I was pregnant I had cramps like I do before my cycle starts.. I really kept thinking "Ok, Its coming any down now" So I slept with a pad. I would wake up paranoid that It started in my sleep.. But every morning I would wake up and it didnt start. Eventually I told my mom what was going on and she said "Girl.. Your pregnant". I thought she was lying so I took a test and found out that I was indeed pregnant. I was only 3 days late but I had the cramping feeling for a week and a half.
